Day 26: Toned Body

Hey, guys, as you can see, first of all, I don't have a yoga mat and I'm wearing socks. So one thing that I've noticed with yoga yoga teacher in yoga practitioner is we really lack the polling action and we have a ton of push right. We lower, strong and slow. We push from Trotter wrong up to playing, but there's no pull. So I created a video for you. That's all about the poll, and we're going to be wearing socks if you don't have wood or tile floors at home, and it's not accessible to do this in your kitchen. Um, on carpet, just put a couple of paper plates and Jerry rig it like tape the paper plate around your foot magazines. Whatever it ISS, something that's going to slip get creative. Who cares? You're our house. No one can see you and have a second pair of socks for your hands. This I will let be optional, but have, um, just in case. So Sacchi's on your toes. I'm for your hands and we'll get started. We're going to come up into downward facing dog. Set your extra pair of socks off ...

to the side off to the front of what would be your mat and come into down dog. So when you come into down dog on the feet, you might all of a sudden be like what the heck, I am just gonna slide all over the place, and that's the idea. So to prevent yourself from sliding forward, I want you to squeeze inward, and maybe this means a little bend in your knees. So right away I'm working my down dogs Not quite as long, but I'm pulling in, squeezing my inner thighs, squeezing my arm so that I'm not automatically sliding. Take a nice, deep breath and I want you to gaze forward and we're gonna slide all the way up into a forward full. Now, if you don't have the hamstring ability and you didn't slide all the way up, don't worry about it. Scoot yourself the rest of the way up and relax. Do your best like anything in life.

Slide it forward, forward full. Relax in how toe length exhale. Slide it back. So it's a lot of push and pull. This is a ton of core, and for me it's a ton of arms. But that's where I tend to be weak. So for you, and maybe it's fun of wherever you are a little weak that slide it forward, live the hips release as you're sliding, we'll come back to blank.
